After attaching 110 helium-filled balloons to a lawn chair, flying over Calgary, and parachuting to the ground, a Canadian man was arrested by police on Sunday. Daniel Boria, who was charged with causing danger to life, said this stunt was an attempt to raise publicity for his cleaning business and cost him more than $10,000 to organize.

Police said the chair from which Boria parachuted has not yet landed.
